We have just returned from a 7 night stay in this wonderful complex. Unfortunately the weather was not the greatist but the fantastic and cheerful staff made up for this.We accompanied 14 children suffering diverse illnessess and that in it self is a challange, sometime their excitement at being on holiday was quite audible but this did not worry the staff, their comments were " they are just excited to be on holiday".The close proximity to the beach was a bonus, great pool and BBQ area, fantastic rooms,and just a hop step and a jump from either Broardbeach or Surfers.

We will certainly be staying again, many thanks Carol, Anne and Marisa for making our stay a memorable one.

We stayed at Paros on the Beach for 3 nights just after Christmas. We stayed in unit 5, which is in the block right on the beach. The positioning of the unit was fabulous - you can't get closer to the beach. It was a fantastic view from the living area of the unit.

Although the buildings are an older style, our unit had been completely renovated fairly recently, and was basically new inside. It had a great kitchen, big living area with dining table, as well as couches/tv, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a laundry.

The layout of the unit was a bit unusual, with the living areas right on the beach, then you go up some stairs and down a corridor to get to the bedrooms/bathrooms. The master bedroom was very big, and the kids bedroom had two double bunks in it. The unit had a big fridge, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, air-conditioning, two tv's and cable channels.

The best part of this unit was its position - you just go down a small path and you are on the beach - there is a patrolled area only about 100m away.

The complex has a tennis court and a pool, so there is plenty to do if you're staying there for a week.

The only minor downsides are that the place isn't very stroller friendly if you have small kids, as there are lots of stairs, and its a bit of a walk from the carpark to the beachfront block.

Overall, Paros on the Beach was a terrific place to stay, and good value. It would be hard to find a better placed unit on the Gold Coast, we'll happily go back!

We stayed from boxing day for three nights and included in our family was my elderly father. At 91 he was wishing for a holiday at the beach and this proved to be the perfect location. He is not steady on his feet and by staying at Paros he was able to get to the pool area and the beach without us having to drive. The accommodation was spacious enough and we were impressed with the assistance from the office.

Room Tip: If you require more than 2 bedrooms plan well in advance.

We were pleasantly surpised by Paros on the Beach. We stayed in Unit 1, which is enormous. Enough space for family of 6. It was clean and modern, well decorated and had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The complex is well managed and maintained. The unit we were in is literally on the beach, two steps across the grass and you are on the sand. The location is great, about 1/2 way between Surfers and Broadbeach.The staff are very pleasant and helpful. They stored our bags on our last day as we were flying out late and offered us access to the games room in the apartment block next door while we waited for our transport back to the airport.Highly recommended, would stay again.

Room Tip: Unit 1 really does have the best position in the complex.

We stayed here between Christmas & New Year. The busiest week of the year. I think we rented the last two bedroom unit available, a garden view unit. Unit 13. We booked to stay at the Coast only 3 weeks earlier. This was the last decently positioned on the Coast without paying $3500 for the week. It was $1621 for the week and we got what we paid for. Our unit was next to the pool (sometimes with noisy children). We didn't have air-con. We didn't gave any glimpse of an ocean and we couldn't even hear the waves roll-in. We did hear the industrial bin collection hear our window every morning at 4am. But if I wanted all of that it would have cost us The Ritz price. We got a clean, tidy and adequately furnished unit with direct beach access. The staff were extremely friendly and every morning they were hosing pathways, cleaning buildings, pruning plants... All with a song and a smile. Our toilet required repair and a lamp. They were fixed in a very timely manner. We would stay here again. As I said you are not paying The Ritz price. so please don't expect it. You are paying for direct beach access. By the way I think unit 13 is probably the only one that doesn't have any beach glimpse or sound

Checked in here for 4 nights and first impression? A Big NO NO!! No air condition which is a terrible thing for us, drinking glass are filthy and disgusting, bed side table are covered with dust, haven't even dusted by the cleaner. Can't even sleep though the room was nice and clean. Parking in bay 21 are hell as hard to get your car in. Should have stayed in next door the penthouse. It is still worth it to stay in a elegant and prestigous hotels around, even if you're on budget don't ever stay here. Your money is more valuable to check in on a nearby hotels. THEY won't even give you a spare key as stated on their instruction paper given from the safe. My advice is NOT TO CHECK IN HERE!!

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, and we're sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay with us. Please allow me to respond to the issues you have raised. None of our apartments are air conditioned, and we don't advertise any of our apartments as being air conditioned. There is unfortunately nothing we can do in this case.

We check all of our apartments before a guest arrives, and do our best to ensure the apartment is in the best possible shape so that our guests can enjoy their holidays. If something is wrong, however, we encourage all our guests to report these problems to our receptionist, and we fix them straight away. In this case, we have no record of you making any complaints regarding your apartment, which is unfortunate as had we known about the problems, we would have fixed them straight away.

Unfortunately we cannot control the ease with which a guest can park in their allocated car park, but again, if guests are experiencing difficulties, we encourage them to see us at reception. We have 4 guest car parks available in our basement, and may have had other car parks available that you could have parked in. Again, we have no record of any complaints made regarding car parking.

With regards to the spare key, all of our after-hours arrivals are provided with one key when they arrive, and the second key when they register with us. Our records show that you registered with us the next day, and were offered a second key to your apartment, which you did not take. You were also able to request the second key at any point during your stay after registration, which you did not.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, we apologise for being unable to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Kind Regards,Chris

One night stay and it was already too much. Rooms are ok...however service very poor. We got the following:

- booked online with request to be contacted regarding early check in. Two days later no call, so follow up required twice. With still no certain confirmation.- arrived at hotel at 12.30 and buzzed reception but was not allowed in gate to even wait till check in and was advised to come back till 2.-after hours reception was from midday onwards but check in not until two. We stayed at a two bedder apartment only given one key at deposit box. Called after hours reception to have another key since there was five of us staying at a two bedder apartment. Was advised by "Kate" that because we checked in after hours (12.30 pm) we were not entitled to another key and was told that we could get another key at 8.30 (useless since we check out the next day at 10).-NO CARE SERVICE, USELESS, JUST PLAIN HOPELESS.

Room Tip: Don't even bother you won't get service over the weekend unless before 12.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We're sorry that your stay wasn't as enjoyable as you'd hoped. Allow me to respond to some of the issues you have raised here.

With regards to early check-ins, they are provided at request only, and at the discretion of management based on whether the apartment was occupied on the day you arrived, and whether the apartment would be clean by the time the guest wanted to check in. Guests who contact us about these are requested to contact us closer to their arrival date, as it's easier to give a definitive answer closer to the date.

In the case of the weekend that you stayed with us, no early check-ins were provided due to the high number of guest check-outs/check-ins that had to be completed on those days. Guests that contacted us to request an early check-in were informed as such, and were offered the chance to place their cars in our basement and complete the check-in procedure prior to entering their rooms at 2pm (our normal check-in time). They were offered this opportunity if they arrived before our reception closed.

With regards to keys, guests who arrive after-hours are provided with one key at the time they arrive, and one key when they register with us.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we're sorry that we were unable to make your stay as enjoyable as possible for you.

Kind Regards,Chris
